Is there a type of chemical treatment that can be put into a chilled water loop that will keep iron particulate
<.5um in solution even if it passes through a magnet coil?

Thanks

I think you need to fill us in with a bit more information about your problem. What are the concentrations of iron in the make up water and what is its form there? What type of cooling system are you working wiht?

Is the magnetic coil a part of the equipment being cooled? What problems are you having with the coil?

The more info relative tot he problem, the better we all think...

As Bob said, you need to provide more information. Why do you have Iron in your loop?
> Is it new? did you flush?
> Do you have a corrosion ongoing? Do you treat chemically your water?

Kind regards
